Sometimes, yes, but it depends in large part on what type of surgery it is. You should consult with the doctor involved in the surgery to be sure.

My dental surgeon rceommened that I take two advil 30 minutes before my appointment time for surgery.
A near-universal requirement is to have a family member or friend take charge of delivering the outpatient to surgery, either to wait there or to arrive in time to pick up the patient on release from recovery.
No, you can not. ibuprofen is classed as a NSAID. Others in this class are Aleve, Naproxen, Advil, Celebrex. Neither can you take any blood thinners such as coumadin (warfarin). You must discontinue use for 7 days prior to surgery.
no
In most cases, gallbladder surgery can be done as an outpatient procedure, called a laparoscopic cholecystectomy or "lap collie" for short. The laparoscope allows the surgeon to remove the gallbladder with only three small incisions instead of having to open the lower abdomen wide.
Yes, you can take some Advil after you have had Novocaine administered.
Yesh
2 weeks prior to surgery, a week is ok but stop as soon as possible, I found out I was having surgery in a week and I obviously wasnt informed about not taking any advil and such a week before so its ok. Absolutely NO meds in you within 24 hours of surgery, unless the drug is approved by your doctor.
Depends on the surgery. I just recently had surgery and I could not have any OTC drug for 24 before or after the surgery.
Yes
